Re: Congratulations England! What a team!

I don't care if the team is all white, all black or all fluorescent green (or any mixture of those)! Players should be chosen on the basis of who is best to play in that position and give the team the greatest chance of success. There are black players in the squad and they have made a big contribut...

Re: Congratulations England! What a team!

That should of course read 'the England Ladies Football Team'. England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales compete as individual nations in FIFA international competitions. I stand corrected!! :$ Regards Nigel. Sorry, I didn't mean to come across as condescending, just pointing out the facts.In t...

Interesting that they are "Ladies" rather than "Women's" teams.
No matter, congratulations to them.
Actually, it is correct to call them the 'England Women's team', rather than the 'ladies team'. Affectionately (and respectfully) known as 'The Lionesses'.

Congratulations Lionesses! Every reason to celebrate their victory. https://twitter.com/SkySportsWSL/status/1553838578626609155 How sweet it is! Nigel² :lol: :lol: :lol: I saw a similar clip on the BBC. I wonder what the girls had in those drinks bottles? and I bet they're still celebrating. Kevin

Re: Congratulations England! What a team!

I'm delighted too and still pinching myself. Whilst the game was quite nerve jangling at times, I always believed that the girls had the skills and motivation to win. Throughout the whole tournament, I've never seen any signs of nerves from the Lionesses (which is often present in the men's team). T...

Re: HOT HOT HOT

Warming up again here in eastern England, although not as hot as last week. It's predicted to be 30C tomorrow, that's 209 SImyon (Klingon temperature measurement). Honestly - check https://hol.kag.org/page/SImyon.html)

Re: Live More Images from James Webb Telescope

Quite incredible photographs. I'm so impressed with the technology and the fact that, at least so far, it has all worked flawlessly. I can't wait to see what other wonders will be revealed.

Re: HOT HOT HOT

10:15pm here in Cambridgeshire and it's still 30C (86F in old fangled units) with 50% humidity. I've got windows open, but the air coming in is no cooler. Why does it always seem to get warmer/more humid in the evenings during hot weather?
